## What is the feature?

Please explain your feature request in detail here. Any screenshot or other visual support are also appreciated

## What problem does this solve for you?

This will help in user training as user can hover/click on info icon and get detailed information about input request. If we can link field label with some user manual link also would work as user can open this page and follow steps mentioned in document. This can help us in avoiding user mistakes.

## Who else would be using this feature?

End users directly updating client details or records.

Hey @Nilesh_Shirsat 👋

As a workaround, have you tried to add a **description** to your smart action fields to provide end user more details about field input required?

```javascript
collection('products', {
  actions: [{ 
    name: 'Edit prodct',
    type: 'single',
    fields: [{
      field: 'Name',
      type: 'String',
      isRequired: true
    }, {
      field: Store',
      type: 'String',
      isRequired: true
    }, {
      field: 'Categories',
      description: 'Please select a category to be displayed in breadcrumbs', // ADD A DESCRIPTION TO GUIDE USER
      type: 'String',
      isRequired: true
    }]
  }]
});

```

Hi @louis

Yes. We have used Description to provide more details. But it has limitation on content how much details can be displayed. Hence require tooltip or link functionality.
